Yeah, other people have pointed this out for me. The second bracelet is a bit too feminine for me. The length of the chain links bring to mind images of Chanel purses/bracelets.

Not only that, but imagine how the surface will affect the look of the bracelet as it oxidizes. Droolworthy, man.

it is nice, i was debating between this and the helmut lang i bought. you think it could be worn more as a track jacket, instead of outerwear??

Tech wave in full effect. No first hand experience but their outerwear stuff seem pretty solid, looks like they're branching out with more fashiony (!) stuff like those drop crotch sweats, not sure how/if that's supposed to be worked into the performance side of the brand though.

Doesn't look like he found any meaning tho, he seems on the edge...

stuff seems pretty solidly built, didn't examine too closely that piece, but other stuff, yeah, seems well constructed

snowman, the jacket is quite lightweight

Like the others said, don't get it. I tried it on, it is very thin, thinner than my thinnest RO leather. And it's not even thin because it is buttery soft, it looks good but quality doesn't seem that great for the price.
